Paul Anderson would never win. Remember, it is a combination of both powerlifting, Olympic lifting and Strongman.

Anderson's deadlift wasn't that great and his bench sucked (that right there is a big loss in numbers)...and he would've been terrible at many strongman events (no practice...putting him in numbers way behind again). That leaves Paul with his squat (which is often exagerated) and his Olympic lifts (which were good).....that's it. Also, Anderson's strength, although showng huge potential, is often overstated in reality.

Also, unless we knew EXACTLY what strongman events would be used in this contest, it is imposible to determine a winner using the above participants.

If we were to add one more name to the list of competitors, I would put my money on Misha Koklyaev. He is not the very strongest in any of the disciplines, but he is fuckin' GREAT at all of them. He is a top strongman, an excellent Olympic lifter, and a very solid powerlifter. The guy would have very respectable numbers in every sport.

He would defeat every single guy on this list when it comes to Olympic lifting...easily (except reza, but Reza would tank in too many other ways). He would be competitive with the best strongmen on the list...and he would be only a bit behind in terms of his powerlifting total, in comparison to the best powerlifters on the list.

I am pretty certain he would win, as all the other competitors listed above have significant weak links...except Koklyaev.

This is another guy who would likely defeat everyone on the list. He is one of oure top strongman, being an ASC strongman participant, which is the heaviest strongman contest on the earth....and he does well. He has a great raw powerlifting total.....and he is fairly proficient at Olympic lifting...not on the level of Reza or Misha, but good.

I would still put my money on Misha, but I think Bendickt would defeat everyone on this list...IF the strongman events weren't the pussy endurance events, but actual heavy lifting events (real strongman).
